Testimonials
Collated independently by Legal 500 research team.
‘Allens is a large firm but the accessibility of partners and associates is akin to a smaller boutique law firm. Advice is prompt and the collaboration between lawyer and client is good and feels personal. The team from partner down to associate have the same mindset - everyone is keen and works with the client to get the best result.’
‘Bill McCredie is the standout. Exceptional experience, finger on the policy pulse, great attention to detail.’
